[…] remember where? And in the same part of the world in a piece in the Daily Telegraph (5 October 1984) there is reference to ‘Renamo’ an ‘anti- communist resistance force’ operating in Mozambique, ‘a movement organised by the old Rhodesian Central Intelligence Organisation in 1977… believed to have more than 10,000 men under arms […]
[…] network reviewed below, trace intelligence gun-for-hire Litvinenko’s activities with the so-called Mitrokhin Commission in Italy, the attempt by Berlusconi to use the Mitrokhin information to fabricate a communist ‘trace’ on his political opponents in time for an Italian general election.

[…] rights campaigners, ecowarriors, roads protesters – to help replace the domestic Soviet ‘threat’. If Swampy and his chums didn’t quite make up for the loss of the Communist Party’s Industrial Department, they might help ensure that careers and pensions – the really important things, after all – stayed on track.

To establish a cover story for this research, the CIA funded a propaganda effort designed to convince the world that the Communist Bloc had devised insidious new methods to re-shape the human will; the CIA’s own efforts could therefore, if exposed, be explained as an attempt to ‘catch […]
[…] having the best of both worlds. We traced the original leftist influence to a pal of his at Cambridge when they were undergraduates. This chap was a communist sympathiser and remained in close touch with Mountbatten for many years. …He was not the only left winger engaged in work of national importance by Mountbatten. […]
